Adding date as well #2

Hello professor

This seems to be very useful extension. From what I understood, I believe you are generating the md file or html file or export file using the log generated in .HistoryData folder, which contains the date of modification as well. If that is the case, is it possible to add the date as well when the modification is done against + or - sign that is shown in the final output.

I think showing that date would allow the developer to reminisce when exactly he/she made those particular changes.

PS: I am using Autogit and automark with VS2013. Note: It's a personal opinion based on self experience only.

@chetanpawar0989 There should be dates and times generated in the output; however, it only does this per session, so not every "hunk" will have a time associated with it.

One option to consider is to generate a secondary ".json" file that contains a lot more meta information so that when the report is rendered there is more information that can be associated with everything.
